First of all, I realize that most HT posters on here probably aren't interested, but here goes... "Scratch" is a 2 disc documentary on the art of "turntableism", or DJ'ing. From the orgins of the "scratch", to the masterminds who continue to push the envelope within this style of music, it's all here. If you're an open-minded person who's ever wondered what kind of musical credibility to give these artists, check it out. Disc 2 has features such as "lessons." Very humbling once you start to think to yourself, "Yeah, anyone could do that".

Interesting, Benny, but I haven't seen this disc in my neck of the woods. -
Hello George. I don't know if it's something you would be able to rent at Blockbuster, but it can be found in most larger retail stores (Wherehouse, Virgin, Amazon.com). While the content isn't really hi-fi oriented, I think someone like yourself would be interested in learning how the turntable has transformed itself from a music playback device to an actual music "instrument". Or you may just cringe at the sound of the needle going "scratch"....lol.Comment

Definitely interesting, Benny. I'll keep an eye open for it the next time I visit the big city.Comment

I own this DVD. Its great stuff. I've also been into DJ'ing for about 8 years so maybe I am a little biased towards the material though :WComment

What's up Miroku? I guess you have to be into DJ'ing to know about this. I'm trying to spread the word, though!Comment
